Stroke Awarenesss at Netcare Sunninghill Hospital

Today, our Social Work and Emergency Department Nursing teams came together to make a difference in stroke awareness.

We screened members of our community by checking their blood glucose and blood pressure, while creating awareness around the importance of recognising the early signs of stroke and seeking help as soon as possible.

For those whose families have already been affected by stroke, we also offered support, guidance and a listening ear — because stroke affects not only the individual, but the whole family.

Proud to be part of a multidisciplinary team working together to educate, support and empower our community.

World Stroke Day at Netcare Unitas

Joined by stroke angels and stroke survivors as stakeholders for the event, and the nursing staff assisting with bp and blood glucose checks, our social worker Tarryn Varrie, with the assistance of the Deputy Matron pulled together a hugely successful Stroke Awareness Campaign.
The stroke MDT joined in to help educate on FAST!
Our social worker had made red and blue ribbons for all the staff at the hospital and for the main table - colours that are internationally recognised for world stroke day
She had two sponsored raffles where people qualified if they did the bp and blood glucose screening and were educated on FAST. Cupcakes were sponsored by Mo Amours for the days event

Overall - it was a huge success and made an impact by allowing for an opportunity to educate the community of strokes, symptoms and resources available.

🧠 Today is World Stroke Day, and Every Minute Counts! ⏱️

A stroke can strike anyone at any time, but knowing the signs and acting quickly can save a life and protect brain function.
When it comes to a stroke, remember to act F.A.S.T.:
• F – Face: Is one side of the face drooping?
• A – Arms: Is one arm weak or numb?
• S – Speech: Is their speech slurred or strange?
• T – Time: Call emergency services immediately!
Don’t wait to see if the symptoms improve.

🌍✨ Happy World Occupational Therapy Day! ✨🌍

Today we are celebrating the incredible power of occupational therapy and the dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to help individuals live life to the fullest! 💙

This year’s theme is "Participation Matters". OTs don’t just focus on rehabilitation; they look at the whole picture to break down barriers and create paths for independent living. Whether it’s helping a child reach a playground milestone, guiding an adult back to work after an injury, or supporting a senior in adapting their home, OTs make everyday activities possible.

To all the occupational therapists, assistants, and students—thank you for your patience, your creativity, and your endless dedication to restoring confidence and dignity. You change lives, one small victory at a time!

🌍 OVERCOMING ADVERSITY, EMPOWERING COMMUNITIES: OUR WORLD POLIO DAY REFLECTION 🌍

Today, 24 October, is World Polio Day.

At Dube & Pottas, our mission is rooted in resilience, empowerment, and supporting individuals through life's most formidable challenges. Today, that mission hits incredibly close to home.

Our very own Managing Director, Mrs Monica Dube, is a Polio Survivor.

Contracting polio at a young age meant a childhood reshaped by surgeries, physical therapy, and navigating a world not built for accessibility. But it also forged an unwavering spirit of determination.

While global cases have been reduced by over 99%, the fight is not over. As a social work agency, we believe in health equity and protection for the vulnerable. We stand with global health organizations to advocate for vaccination and a polio-free future so no child has to experience this preventable hardship.
